The militia have been besieging and shelling the far under-armed tribe as a collective punishment for their rejection of the militia's rule.
Al-Maliki also said that "the Iran-backed militia continue to use Sana'a International Airport as a launchpad for ballistic missiles, unmanned drones and aerial threats."
